Thanks to XMEN , I shall soon be the proud owner of Monsieur Carven and Capucci Punjab.

It has taken me the better part of the year to land a bottle of the elusive Punjab. This frag is a true powerhouse.

For my wife, Creed Tuberose Indiana ($46.00 shipped) and Spring Flowers ($75.00 shipped) off of ebay. I broke down and got me from a fellow BN'er some Creed MI. She likes that better on me than GIT and, well, Ill have to accept it is not as melony as my very first bottle was about 7 years ago.

-a tester of Paul Smith Men:This is the definition of the green scent and I wish that it lasted more than a few minutes.
-a bottle of JOOP! Rococo Pour Homme:This is the definition of pencil shavings,not Gucci Poour Homme! Pity that the lasting power is as poor as above...
-a 30 ml bottle of F by Ferragamo.Elegant,yes,but rather generic.The original Ferragamo Pour Homme and Incanto had more character...

Coolest thing ever.... I hope it smells like skateboards and new clothes. I've read that it's an air freshener and not a cologne though.

Noir de Noir (35ml decant) by Tom Ford

post #213 of 234
2.5 oz bottle of Guerlain Vetiver for $35. I am continuing my quest to understand and appreciate this classic.
It was the first bottle of fragrance my parents ever bought for me, hence, my diligence and patience, to come to grips with it in middle age. As much as I love vetiver in general, I almost feel perplexed that this one and I have not come to terms. The saga continues...
post #214 of 234
Lanvin Vetiver.
I knew I was going to like this one, ignoring all negative reviews I just bought the nice looking bottle.

Not very green.
Vetiver?
Very well hidden the least, I don't sense it.

But that aside...I love the smell!
If I could make a quick comparison, out of a first impression: it is a cross between a toned down, sophisticated XS Pour Homme (irionically a fragrance I loathe), Calvin Klein Eternity (another fragrance I can't stand) and an aquatic like Aqcua di Gio or Bulgari Aqua.

To my surprise the result is very pleasant, as if Bulgari aqua gets a firm kick in the ass.

L'Occitane - Vetyver

Went into the store and knew what I was looking for as I heard so much good about this one and I knew I was going to like it, even though you can't really judge a scent from spraying it on a piece of paper. Now when I did spray it on myself and let the alcohol evaporate, it smelled just great. Gentle, soft and sexy.
